Well, actually... after I posted that, I undertook to calculate all the results over - you know, trust is good, but checking is better - and four eyes see more than two... Anyway: First of all, you forgot to add a point for yourself for your Angola-Portugal prediction, so your overall result is now 28 and not 27. At th England vs. Trinidad/Tobago game, you awarded Pawel 1 point for his prediction, but in the overall standings, he suddenly jumped from 9 to 11. I guess that should have been 10, so his total is now 22 and not 23 (sorry Pawel! ). Holland - Ivory Coast: 1 point for Rocío Record, which was not added to the total. After the last round of Group A, she was awarded 4 points, but only 3 were added to her total, which should thus now be 22 and not 20. Also at Holland - Ivory Coast, I earned 1 point, but suddenly jumped from 19 to 21 (should have been 20). So with that last point from the last round in Group B, it is 28 after all, not 29 as I said before... Andrea1 was first added 3 points for some predictions you had accidentally missed, then was awarded 1 point for her predictions in the last round of Group A, but those 3 points were missing again from the total - it should be 23, not 20. Jackie had 14 points before the last round in Group A, then was awarded 4 points for her predictions, which should amount to 18 - but your total read 17. Then after Group B, she earned 1 more point, which should bring her total to 19, but it still read 17... Lonely Driver got one point for the Sweden-England prediction, which was not added to the total, so it should read 22 and not 21. All the rest is right, though... With all that said, the Overall Standings should now read as follows: 36 audrey 31 silver moondog 29 Daniel 28 Sergeant_Pepper 28 unclesox 26 Here&Everywhere 24 Denny Wingman 23 Andrea1 22 Pawel 22 Lonely Driver 22 Rocío Record 19 Jackie 16 marco76

Confirmation that I really suck! Okay, well, I'll take your word for it. Tbh, I don't feel like going back over it all. That I forgot to add a point for myself I hope eliminates any doubt that I miscalculted on purpose. I'm a bit surprised that it went this long before anyone noticed anything as I've been posting daily totals in addition to the updated overall standings. In addition to trying (emphasis on the word "trying") to keep up with these standings, I was also doing all that commentary bit (no more ) and I'm also recording every game in both english and spanish for my personal library (don't ask why). So now I'm worried whether I've been placing the correct labels on each disc after I'm done recording on it! ...... Thanks for taking the time, Sarg. Appreciate it very much. Er, fwiw... I'm looking at the world through four eyes as well. Perhaps I need to update my prescription.

Here&Everywhere:
I'm really looking forward to Holland v Argentina!
So am I. Although it looks like both teams will be resting some players - those with yellow cards - so we won't get their strongest lineups but it should still be a good one nonetheless. Also looking forward to Croatia-Australia. I think a fight may break out in that one.

You'll win the right to brag if that scoreline is met. Both Argentina and Holland should have no problem with their 2nd Round opponent, which will come out of Group D, likely Portugal and Mexico. Angola has an outside shot. It's the quarterfinals where things will get interesting for them.

Angola still 0-0 with Iran... but Mexico are two goals down to Portugal with 25 min gone. Angola still needs two more goals scored, and they have to score at least one of them. More interesting than I expected.

Angola have finally got that goal, but since Mexico cut the score to 2-1 Angola still needs two more goals to be scored between themselves and Portugal. Mexico are down to ten men after earlier missing a penalty. POR-MEX is roughly over 4 1/2 minutes ahead of IRN-ANG.

Player of the Tournament so far HAS to go to Ronaldo. I'm sure Michelle will agree with that.
If he plays, something he is not doing, yes.
